This is the best version of this song. Unfortunately the only album that it is on is out of print. Other CD's have both the short version and long versions of "Candles in the Rain" but not the combination of "Lay Down" and "Candles in the Rain". Who was Maya Ba Ba anyhow?

"Meher Baba (Devanāgarī: मेहेर बाबा ), (February 25, 1894 – January 31, 1969), born Merwan Sheriar Irani, was an Indian mystic and spiritual master who declared publicly in 1954 that he was the Avatar of the age."

I briefly dated a woman who was one of his followers. To me, an avatar is the icon or picture you use to represent your username on the internet. Whenever she said that Meher Baba was the Avatar of the age, I wanted to say, "No, my avatar, J.R. "Bob" Dobbs, is the avatar for this age."
